Hi all, I have a bit of a problem. Here is my setup.
HDD1 having 2 partitions - HDD1-1 Win XP, HDD1-2 Ubuntu. PC works as dual boot system using GRUB.
In this state I have taken a snapshot of HDD1-1 (win) partition sing acronis.
I have HDD2 on which I want to migrate the image taken above. The aim is to have only win xp boot from a new HDD. The restoration process went OK and I selected MBR to be restored on HDD2 also. In the BIOS I have selected only HDD2 to be bootable.... AND I got GRUB eroor:'partition doesnt exist' and a grub rescue> prompt.
I guess this is because GRUB is still in the bootsector of the HDD2. Question is how to remove GRUB from HDD2 and boot win xp from it?
I have original win xp disk.
Tnanks.
